IU-Purdue Postgame Show: A New Nadir for the Archie Miller Era

January 14, 2021 By Jerod Morris Leave a Comment

On Thursday night, Indiana dropped its eighth straight game to Purdue. Archie Miller is now 0-6 against the Boilermakers. While this loss only counts as one in the record books, it casts a dark pall over Year 4 of the ever-scuffling Archie Miller era.

After the game, our crew broke it all down on The Assembly Call IU Postgame Show.

On the mics: Andy, Ryan, and Coach

Among the topics discussed:

— The many reasons why another loss like this is totally unacceptable
— What Matt Painter did to expose Indiana’s recurring weaknesses
— The macro flaws in Archie’s basketball philosophy
— The few positives to be taken from Race and Armaan’s consistent fight
— Trayce got his numbers, but his defense left Indiana exposed on the perimeter
— Where does Indiana go from here?

We also point out a few meaningful moments you may have missed, go inside the numbers, and hand out our game balls. All of that, and more, on this edition of The Assembly Call.

(Music provided by Bob Thompson — die-hard Hoosier fan and longtime Assembly Call listener.)

January 7, 2021 By Jerod Morris Leave a Comment

— Al and Rob continued their string of better play, but it just wasn’t enough in this one
— The essential contributions from Jerome Hunter and Anthony Leal off the bench
